Are you a parent/caregiver with chaotic school mornings? We have designed a "Kid's Checklist for a Great School Day" to help your child(ren) get organized. ✅ The checklist includes tasks for after school, before bed, and in the morning. It also features tasks that are specific to walking and wheeling to school, such as dressing for the weather, bringing a lock, and comfortably packing their backpack. Check out our checklist and many other resources in our "Inspire Active Journeys to School" toolkit 👇 https://lnkd.in/ggmDNtH2

Finding the right school for your child is enough of a minefield, but what if you don’t think their school is doing enough for them? Time and time again, we come across parents at their wits’ end, unable to pinpoint why their child is struggling – and if you suspect your child might benefit from specialist SEND support, it can be difficult to know when and how to seek help. Our SEND expert Silja Turville explains the key markers to look out for, and suggests how parents can come up with a plan to ensure their son or daughter gets the best possible help, both inside and outside the classroom: https://bit.ly/3U4ddus

Empowered children are resilient children. Teach your children how to escape on their own in case you cannot help them. ✅ They must use the stairs to escape, not the elevator, if you live in an apartment. ✅ Teach them to feel the door before escaping. ✅ If the door feels cool, unlock the door and check outside. ✅ Practice using the exit stairs. And make your kids partners in your family's emergency response planning. Let them have a voice in what goes into the Go-Bag and the correct use of the products/equipment contained therein. https://www.ready.gov/kids

6moThis is such a psychologically-sound tool. I love seeing research being applied like this! You've clearly carefully identified the specific habits that need changing to facilitate active school travel (checking the weather, preparing items ahead of time, being ready to go on time in the morning, having the necessary nutrition and energy) and you've created a visual, appealing tool to gamify and track the creation of these key habits. Way to go!! I think it's easy to look and say "oh no not another checklist" but, as a parent myself, this is exactly the type of tool that I could easily implement at home. All I have to do is click print!
